In the world of Walnut Street, where visitors are famous for dropping hundreds of dollars on sushi, slacks and antidepressants, Cappy's Cafe is a pleasant reminder that Pittsburgh was not founded on khakis. Comfortable, casual and packed with locals, Cappy's is a beer-and-a-shot tavern armed with an impressive jukebox and a cigarette dispenser in the basement. Whether you're screaming at the Penguins on the TV or you're slurping a Sunday morning Bloody Mary, you'll find an easygoing atmosphere at Cappy's, where regulars alternate between New England microbrews and good old Yeungling. While most people don't take advantage of the breakfast menu (that's Pamela's territory), Cappy's is a favorite pit-stop for Carnegie-Mellon students searching for affordable pitchers, and serves as a pleasant alternative to Shadyside's better known (read: more expensive) locales. Conversation is always good at Cappy's Cafe, and the big windows, with a nice view of the street, make a perfect perch for people-watching.

  • Greatest Bar in Shadyside

    Review rating : 5out of 5   dfint - 11/07/2007

    My friends and I are lucky to call Cappy's our 'Home Court', where we entertain ourselves with Friday Night Cappyoke, encourage our recoveries with morning Bloodies, and relax on weeknights with an ice cold draft.

    Cappy's truly the greatest bar in Shadyside.

    "Everybody knows your name" best describes Cappy's. It's a friendly neighborhood bar where after a long day at the office you can relax, enjoy good food and drinks.
